PAPYRUS Sampler: Planners, Candles, and More September Gift Ideas!

It’s not quite sweater weather, but we know everyone’s been patiently (or impatiently) waiting for fall. While PAPYRUS might not serve pipin’ hot pumpkin spice lattes, we’re just as excited for the cozy blankets, beautiful foliage, and togetherness that comes with the autumn season.

And we’re almost there!

For the week of September 1st, we’ve picked four new and super cute gifts that celebrate new beginnings, fun adventures, and the anticipation of an amazing fall. We’ll explain who they’ll be perfect for and why! Hopefully you’ll find some gift-giving inspiration—or just have fun browsing our weekly sampling of new PAPYRUS goods.

For the gal who just got her first job

A young woman just earned her first job straight out of college—her routine, lifestyle, and responsibilities are totally gonna change! Gifting this ambitious lady with a 2020 weekly planner shows both your support and excitement for her new adventure.

First off, responsible time management doesn’t have to be dull. PAPYRUS planners come in all different styles, from vibrantly floral to gold and glittery. Simply put, they’re cute. But they’re also designed to keep her on track, with monthly grids for the big picture and weekly pages to itemize all those new job-related things she’ll be assigned to work on.

And trying to remember everything you need to do can cause so much stress. It may take awhile to build up the habit, but scheduling your life with a planner builds confidence and reduces that “wait, did I forget a meeting???”anxiety storm.

Never again. (Or not even once!) With a planner as her sidekick, this newly hired young woman can tackle the work day with confidence.

The perfect farmer’s market tote bag

Cavallini & Co really has a knack for bringing the charm. Their archive of vintage illustrations lends so well to creating memorable gifts. Imagine walking the stalls of a farmer’s market on a crisp fall morning with this sturdy (and cute!) tote bag hanging from your shoulder. You could fit all kinds of treats inside.

When you gift someone with a Cavallini & Co tote bag, you’re inviting them along on this lovely Autumn outing. The vintage aesthetic inspires visions of heading to a cozy coffee shop with a book or jumping into the car for an impromptu drive through the fall foliage. That’s a gift that really means something.

Pair it with…

This quirky retro owl birthday card, also from Cavallini and Co., is the perfect companion for a vintage-inspired tote.

Who would love it?

Literally anyone. Well, probably women more than men, but you never know. Who doesn’t love a good tote?

Fall scents in the air

What does fall smell like? Crisp air? Cinnamon spice? While the exact notes might be a mystery, this rustic fall-scented candle is the perfect way to build excitement for the coming season. It also lives up to the name: with the tin lid and glass jar, it’ll add a touch of rustic aesthetic to any space.

Candles have the enviable skill of creating a warm and friendly atmosphere. (If only we were all so talented!) When you gift a candle, you’re passing on a little bit of that friendly vibe.

Who would love it?

Hostesses. Just make sure you don’t accidentally imply that their party smells bad!

New office or shop owners. With a brand-new waiting room or shop floor comes a need for setting the tone. Congratulate them on a new adventure with a gift that will add some relaxing notes to their new place of business.

Welcome them home

This charming little candy dish is small but mighty—and when filled with colorful candies, it would be unstoppable. It’s a token of happiness. There’s a dash of retro aesthetics mixed with cottage coziness, and no matter who you gift it to, they’ll fall for its charm. After all, everyone loves candy.
